The Knowledge Factory for accelerated learning practices

Abstract

The Knowledge Factory is a metaphor to describe an accelerated learning organization. World‐class manufacturers are gearing every aspect of their business, from the shop floor to administrative offices, toward the rapid acquisition and deployment of knowledge. This article, based on an extensive research project to identify and interview best‐in‐class operations, provides conceptual guidelines and action steps for organizations striving to practice knowledge‐based competitiveness.
